UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

UK Anti-Doping (UKAD) commissioned an independent, evidence-based review of its organisational operations and effectiveness. The services cover assessment of current structures, processes and ways of working across relevant functions, focusing on effectiveness, efficiency and alignment with organisational objectives. The appointed consultancy was expected to use suitable methods, including stakeholder engagement, document review and benchmarking against comparable organisations and recognised good practice. Outputs include findings and practical recommendations to support continuous improvement, strengthen governance and enhance organisational capability. The work involves engagement with key stakeholders and analysis of existing documentation, including sensitive information. It is a consultancy service in the project-management and organisational-review field, delivered across the United Kingdom for UKAD, whose base is in Loughborough.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to 2AC International Limited. It used a below-threshold procedure, with the procurement method recorded as unknown, and comprised one completed lot. The award selected a single supplier for the review services. The contract was signed on 22 April 2026 and runs from 22 April 2026 to 31 July 2026. Its value is £30,000 excluding VAT, or £36,000 including VAT. Evaluation focused on the supplier’s analytical capability, experience of organisational reviews in regulated or public-sector environments, appropriate review methodologies, stakeholder engagement, benchmarking, practical recommendations and ability to handle sensitive information appropriately. The contract remains recorded as active, and the awarded supplier is a UK small or medium-sized enterprise based in London.

This award indicates demand from UKAD for specialist organisational-review and operational-effectiveness consultancy, rather than routine project delivery. Suppliers competing for comparable work should be able to assess operating models, structures, processes and governance, and turn evidence into practical recommendations for improved efficiency and organisational capability. Credibility would come from strong analytical methods, structured stakeholder engagement, document analysis and benchmarking against comparable organisations or recognised good practice. Relevant experience in regulated or public-sector environments is important, as is the ability to work discreetly with sensitive information. The requirement suits consultancies that can provide a focused review team, engage effectively with senior and wider stakeholders, and produce clear, evidence-based findings for a public or regulated organisation.
